If you got problems on production environment this configuration is specially useful.

OpenKM 6.x - Tomcat

Add the following options when the JVM is started:

-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n

If you are using shell scripts to start Tomcat, start it with the following command:

$ $TOMCAT_HOME/bin/catalina.sh jpda start

It will start Tomcat so that a remote debugger can be connected to port 8000.

OpenKM 5.1 - JBoss

Add this line at the top of $JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.sh script:

JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx2000m -Djava.awt.headless=true -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=8000"

Select the project and the host. Include in source your OpenKM java project. You can debug normally, setting breakpoints etc...
